Queen Mary 2

[Michael Engelen]

Hello,

about two weeks ago I took the opportunity to see the Queen Mary 2 coming down the river Elbe between Hamburg and Cuxhaven, Germany. Quite a ship!



Technical stuff:
Canon 1DsMkII, EF 28-2300L IS, Av mode, 1/200sec, f/11, iso200, 220mm

She is certainly no "bathtub trawler". I'm sorry the light didn't cooperate more with you to get a dazzling shot, but thank you for sharing the photo and the "story". Hope you didn't itch too much afterwards from all the bites!

Photography for me isn't about capturing what I see, but about capturing what I feel.

Thanks for looking, Sue. Actually the itching followed me for about a week. About the light: maybe there is a next time and then maybe the light will be the way I imagined it. We'll see.

Hi, your photo of the Queen Mary brought back memories of a Cruise we took on her a few years ago here are a couple of photos that I took, one Docked at St Kitts and the other at Anchor just of St Maarten. Fantastic Ship, thanks Gaz.

I saw it two years ago in Italy (Sardinia):

Hi Rene,

of course I don't mind. One day I will probably understand, why people want to sail on an ocean liner ;-) So far (maybe I'm too young with 46) I cannot find the deep wish to do so. BUT I will try probably.. Thanks for the images--makes me even more interested.

Michael
